A really good overview....
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
As to be expected Lofts as given each queen a wonderful sense of history and turned each into an individual person and not just a kings consort, or person from long ago. She brings them to life and the whole book is a good, easy quick overview of the queens from the very beginning to Elizabeth II.

I was 9 when I first found this book in the library and fell in love with it. Norah Lofts took history and biography and told the stories of England's queens with humor, wit and charm. I spent hours with this book and never forgot it. If you can find a used copy don't hesitate to buy it.

I found great, understandable information on Eleanor of Aquitaine when I was writing a big research paper. It is full of information.
A must for every Library

This book has beautiful pictures of the queens of England followed by beautiful factual discriptions of the women and their lives. It doesn't go much into gossip, it simply highlights the facts. This would be a great reference book for the library of an adult down to the library of an young adult in their early teens.
Queens of England

Queens of England is a biography of each Queen of England since Before Christ. Each biography is about 2 or 3 pages long, and is the best piece of condensed reference I have ever seen. It is also interesting reading with pictures of the Queens (their statues). I purchased my copy at a second hand bookstore and keep it for reference. Another good reference is "Anne Bolyen". I can't believe this is out of print.
